well played.

Agreed, the only argument for oil immersion cooling is, AFAIK, better energy efficiency which is of course not a real consideration for high end consumer grade hardware. A previous iteration of our national compute cluster was oil immersion cooled but the tradeoffs in maintainability etc. were not even close to sensible so the next iteration went back to regular server racks. And the iteration after that needed the floor space and finally dialed in the end of oily door handles and eerily quiet but oppressively hot server rooms.

Could also be mineral oil wicking up the cable, there are the absolute madmen who opt for oil immersion cooling their rig

Or, it could be that there's like 300x more non-Aussies than Aussies so constraining the ability of foreigners to speculate on Australian real estate could be seen as a priority by an institution who's literal job it is to serve the Australian people, first and foremost.

I did specify world view, did I not? A credible commitment to the rule of law, democracy, secular politics, and to the rules-based international order would be a start. I don't think we should award citizenship to anyone who can't even make lip service to these principles.

edit: smart selection process on the part of that German state actually. Screening out people who would deny Israel the right to exist probably also catches a lot of those who would fail some of the above requirements.

Arch user should be an aeropress: people can't seem to shut the hell up about how great it supposedly is

A better job at what, getting you high? Pretty sure they already have that, and while it doesn't net them 10k per dose the Sacklers would have liked that very much no doubt.

I'd probably ask for a much better metagenome assembler and binner. there's enough groundwork and data out there with exponentially more created each year. If an AGI could compress the 20 or so PhD student-years needed to really leverage that into something outstanding into a few hours that would be really nice.
